US Secretary of Education, Arne Duncan, commits to supporting environmental education in our nation's schools as a part of the the "Blueprint for Success."
"I promise you that we will be a committed partner in the national effort to build a more environmentally literate and responsible society...Right now, in the second decade of the 21st century, preparing our students to be good environmental citizens is some of the most important work any of us can do. It is for our children, and our children's children, and generations yet to come." (US Secretary of Education, Arne Duncan)
